Width = 4ft

Length = 6ft

<u>Explanation: </u>

Let length = l ,

So, width = 2l-8

Perimeter of rectangle = 2x(length + width)

According to the question,

20ft = 2X(l + 2l-8)\\20ft = 2X(3l -8)\\ 10ft = 3l-8\\18ft = 3l \\ l = 6ft

Hence,

Width = 4ft

Length = 6ft

MARK BRAINIEST The base of a triangle is 7 3/4 inches, and the height is 4 2/3 inches. What is the area of the triangle? A) 14 4
Keith_Richards [23]
Short Answer: B
Remark
The area of any triangle is 
A = 1/2 b * h
b = 7 3/4
h = 4  2/3

Step one
Convert all fractions to improper fractions.

7 3/4 = (28 + 3) / 4 = 31/ 4

4 2/3 = (12 + 2) / 3 = 14/3 Now multiply

Step Two
Multiply
Area = 1/2 * 31/4 * 14/3 Multiply the numerators together and then the denominators.
Area = (1 * 31 * 14) / (2 * 4 * 3) = 434 /24

Step 3
Convert this to a whole number + a fraction

Area = 18 + 0.08333333 You already have your answer. It is  B because only B gives an answer of 18. But you can get the rest of 

Let x = 0.083333333
100 x = 8.3333333333 
 <u>x =       0.0833333333 </u>  Subtract
99  x = 8.25 Divide by 3 on both sides.
33 x = 2.75  Divide by 11
3x  = 0.25  
x = 0.25/3 Multiply top and bottom by 4
x = 1 / 12

The answer is 18 1/12.

The average American man consumes 9.7 grams of sodium each day. Suppose that the sodium consumption of American men is normally
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

b. p(10.5<x<11.2)= p(x<11.2)-p(x<10.5)

p(x<11.2)= (11.2-9.7)/1 = 1.5 = 0.9332

p(x<10.5)= (10.5-9.7)/1= .8= 0.7881

.9332-0.7881= .1451

c. 9.7-.253, 9.7+.253

9.447, 9.953
